ASHLAND, VA - Quarterback Austin Faulkner threw a career-high
five touchdown passes as Randolph-Macon topped visiting Shenandoah
42-14 Saturday afternoon in college football action. R-MC is now
3-0 for the first time since 1986, while Shenandoah drops to 0-3 on
the season.

Three of Faulkner's scoring strikes came in the first half as
the Yellow Jackets jumped out to a 28-0 lead, scoring on all four,
first half possessions. The Yellow Jackets held the ball for 22:37
of the first stanza, scoring on a nine-yard run by Thaddeus Scruggs
on the opening drive of the game and then getting TD receptions
from Dan Crouch (17 yards), Zack Midulla (3 yards) and Crouch from
one yard out with just 15 seconds remaining in the half.

For the game, Faulkner finished 25-of-32 with 267 yards to go
along with the five touchdown tosses. Earl Peoples caught 17 passes
from Faulkner for 170 yards and two second-half scores. Crouch
finished the day with four grabs for 49 yards. Scruggs helped the
Jackets ground game gain 173 yards, with 91 yards on 21
carries.

R-MC rolled up 25 first downs, 440 yards of offense and logged
40:15 of possession in the win. Randolph-Macon ran 77 plays on the
day to Shenandoah's 46 and scored on all six trips to the Red
Zone.

The Yellow Jackets defense held SU to just 143 total yards,
including just 72 through the air. The Hornets were just 3-of-11 on
third down on the afternoon. Trey Haddon had a team-high seven
tackles, including two behind the line of scrimmage. Ian Candelaria
had five stops, including a sack for R-MC.

SU got on the board after its first drive of the second half,
when Keone Kyle capped off a 65 yard drive with a one-yard plunge
to make the score 28-7.

Two fourth quarter touchdowns by Peoples extended the R-MC lead
to 42-7, before Daniel Wright found Brian Calloway from 22 yards
out to close out the scoring, making it 42-14, with 1:22 to go in
the game.

Randolph-Macon will be back in action next Saturday at home when
it hosts Frostburg State at 1:00 p.m.
